Auto Drip Coffee Measurements

The coffee maker is the most important piece of equipment.

Auto drip coffee measurements.

Measure out your whole bean coffee. For example when brewing with an 8 cup automatic brewer we use 80 grams of coffee with 1280 grams of water. Even if you are using a manual dripper you have to be very careful when selecting it. Still make sure not to overload or skimp a safe rule of thumb is two healthy tablespoons of coffee per 16oz.

Place a new coffee filter in the brew basket of your automatic drip coffee maker. Add 2 tablespoons of 1850 coffee grounds to the filter for every 6 ounce serving you plan to make. Drip coffee is more forgiving than other methods as far as precise measurements go. The standard coffee measure is to have coffee 1 15th of the amount of water.

This is why automatic drip coffee makers are so popular. Said another way put in 15 times as much water as coffee. For a tasty cup of coffee using a drip coffee maker measure coffee grounds by using 2 level tablespoons of grounds per 6 ounces of water. Most drip makers use a 6 ounce cup size.

We recommend a 1 16 ratio of coffee to water. Although play around with the amount of grounds used until you find the taste strength you prefer. An automatic drip coffee maker controls most of the measuring and timing tasks so you don t have to. Remember add 6 ounces of water for every two tablespoons of coffee grounds.
